[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I wrong that visitor parking passes are only for a short period and not for use every single day?  Of course I think his behavior is ridiculous but I didn't think someone like a nanny could use a visitor parking pass every day, presumably month after month.  That's essentially what a residential parking permit is, and she is not a resident.  [/quote]

From the article:
"The strange series of events could be viewed as the latest example of the District’s perpetual parking wars, except residents say parking isn’t a problem on their streets and that many babysitters use the visitor passes.

That’s perfectly legal for nannies to do, said Terry Owens, a spokesman for the District’s Department of Transportation."

The nanny and her employers did nothing wrong.[/quote]

I think the guy is a nut job but it is not legal to do what the nanny is doing unless she has a ROSA exemption.

You are wrong.  The VPP placard supercedes the need for a ROSA exemption and can be used for nannies, home health care sides, contractors, visiting guests or relatives.  Hell, there's even a black market for them and car windows are routinely broken and passes stolen.  There are a surprising number of. vehicles from Maryland and other awards of DC whose drivers display the placard before heading off to catch the Metro.  It's also the reason so many Marylsnd and Virginia vehicles are parked all day on the blocks adjacent to USDOT in the Navy Yard.[/quote]

Well, then parking enforcement doesn't know their own rules because my mother received a warning that her car would be impounded despite the fact that she had a visitor permit properly displayed. I met with my ANC rep and a rep from parking enforcement specifically to discuss this issue and was told that it was due to ROSA enforcement. [/quote]
